Public bug reported: When ubuntu 17.04 is installed wifi Ralink RT3290 is recognized immediately but it doesn't work at all even it "connects" and says connection established with good quality - it's poor and almost zero quality with frequent disconnections. All this makes equipments with ralink wifi cards unable to work under linux distros and there're thousands of them.
Recently found modded drivers for RT3290 which installed without any issues and wifi worked after that like a charm, but after system reinstall I can't install theese modded drivers anymore and there're some issues during installation and loading kernel modules (maybe it's something with latest linux kernels)... Anyway it's pointess to use RT2800pci driver for physical RT3290 chip cause it's a wrong piece of code and Ubuntu maintainers should fix this. BTW Bluetooth RT3290 doesn't work at all but making RT3290 wifi works is seriously critical. ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: zesty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1715866 Title: Ralink wifi RT3290 on Ubuntu 17.04 critical driver issues Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: When ubuntu 17.04 is installed wifi Ralink RT3290 is recognized immediately but it doesn't work at all even it "connects" and says connection established with good quality - it's poor and almost zero quality with frequent disconnections.
